Rock the Casbah: Arab-World Revolutions

[Cyan D. Funk]

Does Iraq even have a regime to overthrow?

[asm00200]

I guess nobody saw that.

Gaddafi just appeared out of nowhere in what looks like an old castle or something, talking to a couple of hundreds of his supporters.

Again, nothing worth noting.


Oh wait.

"I'm in central Tripoli now. The people who don't love me don't deserve to live"

Meanwhile this happens in the Vatican.

Could someone update the "Revolution Likehood" Map?

These events in Saudi Arabia and Iraq are.. unexpected.

What events in Saudi Arabia?
Iraq on the other hand.....

Gaddafi wearing ushanka stands on castle walls and offers weapons to everyone who wants to protect the regime.

To think that something so wicked could begin in Libia on its own.

But the cry was for reform not revolution. The government was elected only a year ago and includes most of Iraq's main factions, he adds.
"We don't want to change the government, because we elected them, but we want them to get to work," the AFP news agency quoted one 24-year-old student as saying.
"We want them to enforce justice. We want them to fix the roads. We want them to fix the electricity. We want them to fix the water."

I saw that, he was telling them to dance and stuff. Like you say nothing worth nothing.

I was focusing on his hat.The accessories he has time to carry with him are so irritating to look at.

By the way on bbc they also showed what could be called the headquarters of the protesters in Benghazi with activists ,lawyers ect running the town. There was internet on their laptops, made me wonder a bit more about kuma's situation.

Then again they may be using proxys ect.

Why is he wearing a Russian Winter hat in a desert country....

Yeah, I thought about that too.
All these people resigning after years spent serving Gaddafi, there might be some danger. Not for the revolution, I think, but maybe for the post-revolution.
Well, it might be unavoidable, there'll still be problems after Gaddafi's fall. That's what worries me the most about all this, now.


Another thing... I read on BBC's website (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-12576613) that Iraq's Prime Minister accused Al-Qaeda and Saddam Hussein loyalists to be behind the revolt...
It's strange that both Gaddafi and him told that, don't you think? Is it only some easy and dirty trick used to stop the revolts, or could there be more? I'm sure that all the tens of thousands of people protesting aren't ALL Al-Qaeda minions, but Al-Qaeda might try to use these revolts for their own purposes, no?
I'm quite surprised that we didn't hear more about them. Well, it could also be dangerous for them to be active while the world's attention is directed towards these countries, and corrupted regimes must be good for their activities, but still... I can't help thinking about that.
